Need help with a member pinesfarm

[Fish]

Either way, we are not the judges, or jury, just a forum.

You garnered a following, which I joined into to help resolve.

And that is all that it should be here.... Period.......

Whether or not this kid makes good is not pertinant...

 

[mowoodchopper]

we're all on the same page here, what I should have said was that a good share of it was worthless, not all of it.

agreed a promise of your saw is worthless, at this point after he has told you so much bs you should be leery. The thread is not worthless its prob your only hope of getting you saw!

 

[scattergun13]

First off... Don't start out any thought to any adult you just ####ed over with, "Listen up..." You have no right to tell anyone to listen up. That, in itself, is disrespectful.

Second, what the #### is up with kid's writing skills these days??? Every site I get on has 15 - 20 year old kids that don't know what commas and periods are. I honestly can't read thoughts that aren't (at least somewhat) properly punctuated. Schools suck anymore - and my best friend, (who's a teacher) agrees with me on many aspects.

At least you said all this was due to your laziness. I always say, #### up - fess up.

I would appreciate it if someone could rep him for this post please since I have run out, repping others in this thread for helping. Very well said and timely...

My two cents worth:

The thread should not be considered worthless if it prevents another deal in the future from going sour simply by somebody reading what can happen when they don't ship an item as promised.

As for the thread being posted in the chainsaws section, 1) the deal wi50 entered into originated here. 2) I don't see a forum section called "deals gone bad" or anything similar to that. 3) Until every person who buys and sells items is 100% faithful to their respective end of the deal in a timely manner, I have no problem having some way of allowing others who may be affected by one of the parties involved to be made aware of what is going on, and allow for assistance to see that the wrong is righted.

I don't suggest that somebody should make a posting to the effect of "avoid this person or you'll get ripped off" as that can cause problems and hard feelings, and in worst case scenarios, legal retributions.

I will admit there are times beyond anybody's control that can affect or delay a part of a transaction to be carried out, and certainly those situations should be taken into consideration, but at the same time, the other party involved has to have timely and honest communication explaining what is going on.

None of us is perfect, so we just gotta work a little harder to make our corner of the world a better place.

 

[trimmmed]

Is it the same number he posted in post 131?

wi50 re the tracking number you got pm'd at 6pm I repeat

Is it the same number he posted in post 131?

 

[THALL10326]

Thall, I feel that I have been quiet enough, but I question the "still ahead" part. I'm by no means ahead, I've paid for goods not recieved. When they arrive I will be back to square, and or satisfied, whatever you wish to call it but never ahead.

Trimmed, I agree with the fact that I should have brought this up a month agoe, but I'm patient, giveing the guy a chance, not wanting to pressure him an or cause any un needed negativity. Roughly 10 days agoe I sent a PM requesting that it be shipped or my money back and to make it quick. I never got any response, nothing. I hear back now after I started this thread. 10 days or so is not "right quick" in my book, and rember, it was bought in January, money order paid and mailed priority mail on Jan 12, so, yes to wait untill the first part of March is my bad.

Yes the thread is likely as worthless as the bandwidth it takes up, as are a lot of the posts in it. The package should have been shipped 6 weeks agoe and communication made (is that not the point?). If nothing else it gives us something to read, or pretend to care about.

You brought this thread here, all the guys went to bat for you and spoke up for you. Seems Trimmed and Fish got you some results, something you haven't been able to do in 3 months. Now you call it worthless because the saw isn't in your hand yet. Well gee, didn't know you wanted results and a timeline too, hmmmm, are you seeing now why you need to quit while your ahead??

 

[matt9923]

I think Wi50 agrees with you, hes has a right to be pissed after 3 months. I don't blame him. I agree he could have worded it better.
He said he appreciates the help.

that's my attempt at keeping the peace. :help:

 

[roncoinc]

What the hell is going on here ??
i have been reading this thread looking for the issue to be resolved ..
UNTILL the saw is recived and as "DISCRIBED" THERE IS NO RESOLUTION..
the amount of time involved is is NOT excusable even by a punk kid..
how do you "screw up" for that amount of time ??
is this kid "challenged" in some way and not responsable for his actions ??
is he under the "care" of somebody that is responsable for his actions and he got loose from them ??
responsability is something that adults have to live with everyday..you go to work,you pay your bills,you feed the family and keep them warm and dry..
something as simple as sending a package out in a resonable amount of time IS something even a child can do !!
if YOU waited that long to pay your electric bill you would be reading this in the dark !! get the picture ??
"I" think neg rep is in order and "banning" would be the best thing as somebody of this charachter has nothing to add to the forum..
am i being "harsh" ?? i think not... consider what the buyer in this case has gone through and all it takes is a whining kid to say sorry and he is vindicated ??????
i HATE thieves,,even when all they steal is my time..
also hate it when i'm in a bad mood and read of a good member getting messed with..
somebody should take him behind the barn and teach him a lesson !!

Ya did good. He has a right to be p'oed, no question about that. I got no bones with him, I hope he gets his saw. However any dayumm thread I'm in is not worthless, why, because I say so,LOLOLOL All kidding aside he does need to give it a few more days for the saw to show up. Another week after waiting three months isn't that much to bare..

 

[wi50]

I appreciate the help. No doubt. I've pryed on the fella for months now and gotten no results.

But here is a question that I or no one here can answer at this time. Is the thread useless? I've stated that it is or may be is, it's been mis interpreted, something I or no one has any controll over is how each individual understands what is read in relationship to what another wrote. Have we gotten any results? When the item I bought arrives, then we'll know the truth. Untill then all I can say is thank you for the help.



Yes trimmed, it is the same number that is in post 131 (420 54762 9122 1288 8230 0008 7550 34)


I'll post a seperate thread when the item arrives, or at least within a timely manner of it arriveing as I'm gone now and then for a day.

Thall is right another week won't hurt a thing.

I suspect that I'll have a saw, if I do, I know it will lay in the back of the shop allong with many new parts for the project. A Husky 288 piston, good cylinders, new berrings, seals, etc, a bored out carb, and depending on how it looks, I'll probably order new plastic.

Good post. Post some pics when you get it. The 650 gets no respect due to its big brother, the 660. The 650 is a pretty good saw...

 

[wi50]

I'm hopeing the cylinder will salvage, though it's not real important. I'd like to map things out in the 650 in comparison to the 660. I wonder why the big price difference in the two saws when purchased new? If anything the 650 should be higher due to the lower volume of parts produced, but I you pay for power. No different than buying road truck or our ag tractor engines, same engine, same fuel system, turbo, etc, but $$$$$ for the program to make the power, I suppose some of it covers the few increases in warrenty claims.

I've made a mandril to cut the squish band in the cylinders, then by cutting the base to set the squish I can now controll a few more things in the engine.

edit, I'm not puter savy enough to post pictures, though I should learn someday

Please complete the story about the arrival of the saw in this thread, don't make a new one before you start working on it!

 

[ZeroJunk]

I look at boring contracts all freaking day long worrying about dangling modifiers, misplaced comas, the correct use of a semicolon, etc. etc.

Poor thing.

 

[GASoline71]

Anybody wanna buy a slightly used MS650?












...too soon?

[Arrowhead]

Its never too soon..... haven't seen ya in a while.

 

[Banacanin]

Poor thing.

LMAO. I used to work for a living but they decided Mexicans could do it for less money so I went back to school and got a job sitting on my big fat a55. I guess I am forgetting what real work is. REP SENT FOR KEEPING ME IN LINE!


crap it says i have to spread it around. Would someone please hit the man with some rep for me

 

[Tree Sling'r]

I can picture the late Michael Landon playing the role as the "Father" whipping the boys (Albert's) arse behind the barn.

Now all we need is some gay folks, religion, governmental influence, rap music and fake tits and we could have ourselves a modern day Little House on the Prairie episode.

 

[Meadow Beaver]

It's already an episode of SOA :sword: opcorn:

 

[HEAVY FUEL]

I hope he didn't put "weegieland" as the shipping address.
